Who is Jesus Christ?


15 He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation. 16 For by Him all things were created, both in the heavens and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities—all things have been created through Him and for Him.17 He is before all things, and in Him all things hold together.
Colossians 1:15-17


Jesus is the image of the invisible God


1 Long ago, at many times and in many ways, God spoke to our fathers by the prophets,2 but in these last days he has spoken to us by his Son, whom he appointed the heir of all things,through whom also he created the world.3 He is the radiance of the glory of God and the exact imprint of his nature, and he upholds the universe by the word of his power
Hebrews 1:1-3a


In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God
John 1:1


And the Word became flesh, and dwelt among us, and we saw His glory, glory as of the only begotten from the Father, full of grace and truth
John 1:4


No one has seen God at any time; the only begotten God who is in the bosom of the Father, He has explained Him
John 1:18


All we can know and understand of God is seen in Christ


Jesus is the firstborn of all creation


16 For by Him all things were created, both in the heavens and on earth, visible and invisible, whetherthrones or dominions or rulers or authorities—all things have been created through Him and for Him.17 He is before all things, and in Him all things hold together.
Colossians 1:16-17



18 He is also head of the body, the church; and He is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, so that He Himself will come to have first place in everything.19 For it was the Father's good pleasure for all the fullness to dwell in Him, 20 and through Him to reconcile all things to Himself, having made peace through the blood of Hiscross; through Him, I say, whether things on earth or things in heaven.
Colossians 1:18-20


5 Have this attitude in yourselves which was also in Christ Jesus, 6 who, although He existed in the form of God, did not regard equality with God a thing to be grasped,7 but emptied Himself, taking the form of a bond-servant, and being made in the likeness of men.8 Being found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself by becoming obedient to the point ofdeath, even death on a cross.
Philippians 2:5-8


For in Him all the fullness of Deity dwells in bodily form
Colossians 2:9


Only. God. Could. Do. This.


Jesus is the supreme heir, owner, maker, sustainer…and reconciler of all things


This is where our PEACE comes from
